Every summer, University of The Arts professor James Makins attends a ceramics workshop in Tokoname, Aichi Prefecture.
This year, with the help of the staff of the International Workshop of Ceramic Art in Tokoname, he brought 13 of his students from the Philadelphia school to the city and gave lessons there.
The students learned not only about the art of pottery, but also about the city hosting them as they interacted with local residents every day.
